London-based PE firm agrees to acquire the financial software group, paying a 31% premium to its last close and marking a swift reversal from the company’s Nasdaq listing in 2024.

London-based Hg Capital has agreed to acquire financial software maker OneStream in a take-private transaction valued at $6.4 billion as the Michigan-based company struggled to maintain its valuation.

The deal comes less than two years after OneStream went public on the Nasdaq stock exchange. Reports in November said the company was exploring a sale after its share price had fallen 45% from its peak valuation.

Under the terms of the deal, shareholders will receive $24 per share in cash. The per-share purchase price represents a 31% premium to OneStream’s closing share price on Jan. 5 when the offer period began, and a 27% premium to its average price over the previous 30 trading days.

OneStream went public in July 2024 under KKR‘s ownership, during a wave of technology listings on US exchanges. It raised $490 million in its IPO and an additional $465 million in its second public offering the following November.
